Pakistan Violates Ceasefire Near LoC In Jammu, BSF Jawan Injured

Pakistan Violates Ceasefire Agreement: A BSF personnel on Wednesday was severely injured when Pakistani troops fired at the Indian Border without any provocation. This act by the neighboring country’s soldiers broke the ceasefire agreement.

BSF Personnel Injured In Firing By Pakistan

“At 2:35 AM, there was firing from across the border in the Akhnoor area.” The BSF responded appropriately to the firing. Due to the Pakistani firing, one BSF personnel was injured,” the spokesperson of the border guarding force said.

He also said that the troops are very alert and watching closely along the International Border and Line of Control.

Ceasefire Violation Occurs Days Before Assembly Elections

The truce has been more or less effective since its re-implementation on February 25, 2021, with no serious incident of ceasefire violation between the two countries taking place. In the first such incident in over three years, on June 3, last year a BSF jawan was killed by the firing from Pakistan Rangers in the Ramgarh area of the Samba district. The latest break in the ceasefire comes only days before the first part of three-part assembly elections, which are scheduled for September 18. The second and third parts are scheduled for September 25 and October 1, respectively.

A Shift Towards BJP's Aggressive Hindutva Amid Opposition's Leadership Crisis

The Maharashtra election may further push the Congress down as it has lost the election at a time when it needed a win most desperately. Though the Congress succeeded in pushing the BJP to a corner and stopping it at less than a majority on its own, it failed to make any headway further.
